When he is mad in the movie, he is still "cute," but that guy looked too freaky for my tastes. As such, I'm really happy about these banks. I'm glad they went 11 inches instead of the 8 they originally announced. 8 would be too small. I never cared for the NECA version because I thought (still think) his face looks awful.

Honestly, for me, Ghostbusters takes the back seat to MOTUC. I love my Egon & Slimer, which I just got Saturday, and opened whilst watching Ghostbusters! =) That said, MOTUC will always be my number one!

Not sure if I'm in the minority there or not. Although given what the NECA one goes for nowadays, probably not. @Poe: I agree. I'm sure that's the case. Although it's tough to say. It's just a shame as other toy banks sometimes include a lot of articulation points or at least on the arms. Of course the majority are static, so it's a bit of a straw man argument. Just saying I'd definitely get it if it had arms because it reminds me of the old toon Stay Puft but without it I'm passing. I'm holding out that Mattel will do Stay Puft right.

Because doing him "right" would make him about my height... O_o I'm still trying to fathom Toy Guru's line "we're going to do him right" when referring to Stay Puft at SDCC.
